Impregnated Timber
Impregnated Timber
Timber protected against rot, insects and moisture by vacuum-pressure impregnation, lasting up to 50 years.
- Method
- Vacuum-pressure
- Service life
- Up to 50 years
Impregnation is the most suitable solution, ecologically and economically. Trees are the longest-living beings on earth; impregnation reduces the consumption of wood and extends the life of the wood in use. Impregnation is the process of soaking chemical preservatives into the wood with different methods. It keeps bacteria, woodworm, termites and other pests from damaging the wood and makes its life ten times longer.
Impregnated wood lasts longer than concrete, iron and plastic. The treatment keeps moisture out, protects against fungi and keeps harmful insects away. Treated wood needs no maintenance, and metal fittings do not cause corrosion. It has no odour and is completely safe.
Areas of use
Pergolas and gazebos, timber-frame houses, garden furniture, roof timber, sapling supports, vineyard stakes, park and playground equipment, pool surrounds and walkways.
